Product Description
Hoods offer several benefits to the photographer. Primarily the hood shades the lens from stray light that may result in an unwanted discoloration or hazing of the image, or the appearance of lens flare. Shading your lens helps improve contrast and image quality. A hood is not required to eliminate these problems, as any item used to shade the lens will provide the same protection from stray light. The hood is convenient in that it is built to offer protection while ensuring that it will not inadvertently find its way into your image. Photographers often state the protective abilities of a hood as a reason to have one.

 Just a beginner... June 22, 2010

Great product, makes an immediate impact on outdoor shooting. I thought about getting the off-brand hood, but figured the Canon product was the best bet. No hesitations recommending this product through Amazon as it was about 8-12 dollars cheaper than most other sites. Shipping was fast, even with Standard Shipping selected.
Thanks
Lens Hood Review May 31, 2010
Gregorio Del Pilar
I am an amateur photo enthusiast who loves taking pictures. I read several good reviews regarding having a lens hood, hence I was convinced to purchase one. My experience after using it tells me that it has both plus and minuses. On the plus side: It adds protection to the lens from impact. It prevents glare from hitting lens area when used for exterior shots during glaring sunlight conditions. Some disadvantages noted: It extends the overall lenght of the lens hence makes it bulkier to carry around especially in crowded places. Secondly, the lens hood casts a shadow on the subject when taking pictures using the built in camera flash when the subject of the photo is in close proximity to the camera lens (say less than 3 feet). You are better off taking the lens hood off or using a dedicated flash mounted higher.
With the disadvantages mentioned above and you still decide to have a lens hood on. I recommend getting the original Canon lens hood. It is made of good quality plastic material and fits well on the lens. No difficulty taking it off and on, although pricier than other aftermarket makes that does the same job.
 Can't beat this hood! April 27, 2010

This is the third hood I have purchased for my Canon 40D, and this is by far the BEST! From the way the hood locks onto my lenses, to the felted interior of the hood, there is nothing better out there! The price is amazing. I have thrown the hood into my camera bag and suitcase, and the hard plastic does not even show a scratch.
Excellent! April 25, 2010

This is my first lens hood, so nothing to compare to. It mounts on the lens easily, and mounts just as easily backwards to save space. It has a nice finish and looks good. It has black felt/flocking inside to help reduce reflections. It is all plastic, but that makes it nice and light. It does get in the way when adjusting the C-PL, but I'd guess all hoods do.
